Wait for me, and Ill come back! Wait with all youve got! Wait, when dreary yellow rains Tell you, you should not. Wait when snow is falling fast, Wait when summers hot, Wait when yesterdays are past, Others are forgot. Wait, when from that far-off place, Letters dont arrive. Wait, when those with whom you wait Doubt if Im alive. Wait for me, and Ill come back! Wait in patience yet When they tell you off by heart That you should forget. Even when my dearest ones Say that I am lost, Even when my friends give up, Sit and count the cost, Drink a glass of bitter wine To the fallen friend - Wait! And do not drink with them! Wait until the end! Wait for me and Ill come back, Dodging every fate! What a bit of luck! theyll say, Those that would not wait. They will never understand How amidst the strife, By your waiting for me, dear, You had saved my life. Only you and I will know How you got me through. Simply - you knew how to wait - No one else but you. (Konstantin Simonov)
